My swearing vocabulary, particularly once you factor in compound nouns, is wider and more interesting than some of the normal vocabularies of some posters on here.
Swearing is a fantastic test of the imagination, and of creativity.
Of course, if swearing keeps fresh young blood out of here, I'm happy to refrain (nominally) from swearing. I'll still do it, but I'm happy to accept it's naughty.

Having been on the receiving end of many a bollocking, ex squadie see, I can tell you this. If any of the above mentioned bollockers descended into the repetitive use of the "F word", then one knew said bolloker had "Lost it". ;D

Click on your name. Go to modify profile. Select "don't show the fucking retarded avatars". Then you won't have to see them. Do the same with "Don't show those utterly moronic sig lines that might have been funny one time, but I don't want to have to read every time someone posts."

I don't think anyone's really worried about the post count. It really doesn't matter about that. If people want to look at their own count that's fine, it really has no bearing on the forum. If people enjoy posting, then post to your hearts content, if not, don't. No problem! ;D

I'd personally like to keep the Avatars, as we get used to seeing certain ones and recognise them. If there is nothing down the left hand column, it'd be really bland and harder to spot the names. Avatars are optional anyway, no-one has to have one if they'd prefer not to, it's fine. ;D

Ah cheers Andy. I've switched the "display retardedness" option to off, much better now.
Still, it makes the place look crap for any potential newcomers doesn't it.

I'm bothered about the post count, I don't want my slackness and the pointlessness of my working hours life rubbed in my face constantly.

Click on your name. Go to modify profile. Select "don't show the fu cking retarded avatars". Then you won't have to see them. Do the same with "Don't show those utterly moronic sig lines that might have been funny one time, but I don't want to have to read every time someone posts." Can I affirm the sig line thing. I am having to avoid some threads because if the sig line is a big Obama banner (to pick a random example) it somewhat draws attention to my screen which is visible to my boss.

You can get rid of the sig line too, dwad. Click on your profile> modify profile> choose 'no' when it asks if you want to show signatures.

was looking a the offical support forum today and came across this. It's in the agreement you sign when you register to join a proboard forum and also in the Terms of Service (TOS) ... but it doesn't hurt to remind you all again What can get your Board DELETED Please remember that all forums hosted by ProBoards must be appropriate for 13 years old and up. Any forums breaking the terms of service will be deleted. You might want to review your site and make sure you're conforming to TOS, which state (in part): "User's web site may not contain content promoting the use of illegal drugs, alcohol, sex, pornography, nudity, or any other form of adult content, profanity, hate, "spam," fraud, racism, mlm, pyramid schemes, or promote any illegal activity." The entire Terms of Service can be found here: www.proboards.com/tos.html
